On the evening of August 2, 2022, Romelle Miller, a 28-year-old Black man, was found with a fatal gunshot wound at a residence near the intersection of Yout and Green Street in Racine, Wisconsin. Officers arrived at about 8:40 p.m.; investigators treated the incident as a homicide.

Reports say the shooting followed what was described as a friendly interaction. Some accounts state the person later taken into custody claimed the gun discharged accidentally while he and Miller were handling a loaded revolver. Despite that claim, a 21-year-old man was taken into custody and expected to face multiple charges, including reckless homicide and two counts of endangering safety by use of a dangerous weapon.

The Racine Police Department asked witnesses or anyone with information to come forward to assist the investigation. Did anyone in the Racine area see or hear anything that night, or know the people involved?
